Kate turns two!

Kate turned two at the end of July. It seems so long ago already. This girl is so full of life! I think she might be the class clown one day because she loves to make people laugh. She also marches to the beat of her own drum. She has us a bit concerned because she will do something bad and then doesn't care very much that she gets in trouble. Uh oh. She is very strong-willed and independent and wants to do everything her big sister does. Kate repeats a lot of what Addie says these days. Not always the best thing. Kate is such a lover! She is so quick to give hugs and kisses. She even says, "I wanna a hug" to a lot of people and always has to give hugs when she leaves for daycare in the morning. Kate loves to play with babies, read books, swing and color. She is a monkey and gets into everything. It is amazing how many words toddlers learn each day. Although it can be hard to understand sometimes, she talks in full sentences. Kate used the potty for the first time in February, but still isn't potty trained. Apparently she uses it all the time at daycare, but doesn't it do as much at home. We are not pushing it since her older sister took almost a year to train!

Kate weighed 24 lbs. 10 oz. and 33 inches tall at her two year appt.

Enjoy the pictures from our celebrations with her! We love you so much, goose goose!

We had a little party at her daycare. The daycare always gives tiaras for the birthday girls to wear. When we walked in Kate had her sunglasses and tiara on. Since we had just gotten back from Florida she was obsessed with wearing sunglasses all of the time.

So sweet!

Such a goose cheesing it!

We had our immediate family over for a cookout.

The cousins had fun playing in the baby pool out back.

Which then turning in to a mud pit.

Time for cupcakes!

Time for presents!

Next onto fun with bubbles.

She squints her eyes so much now when she smiles for the camera. You can't even see her pretty blue eyes.

And although we had cupcakes, we decided to do s'mores too. Hey, we had to celebrate.
